Seems like Original Green/Silver paint is topping the list here. I am waiting until i go on vacation in August to do the job. I am also thinking about doing the front bars and side steps myself. Anyone has any plans or ideas?

Silver metallic is seriously on my mind. but i think i would have to have it heavy flaked. or else it might make the van look old. The other think i was thinking about if i go silver is the color of the rear bumper and the door trims. i searched all over and for nothing i can find pics of this model in custom condition. I sure hope someone can find some pics and direct me to them.

.....from one L2 owner, yuh van clean and straight. i also agree to keep the orig. colour and when yuh want brush bar and side steps, check Team Loco.

he has his own fabrication shop and can design anything out of steel. he has done all my fabrication work on my van and i trust no one else. :!:

So the general concensus here is to keep the vehicle looking original with no sort of body graphics?
